wanted- dead or dying heater blend valves

[black olive]

Im trying to replace the rubbish heater blend valve with a longer term solution, ( central heating diverter valve driven by the 260 actuator motor) and need a valve and actuator to pull to pieces, does anyone have a dead one they are willing to donate in the interests of a possible solution ?

Pm me if you can help

In this thread post https://www.two-sixties.co.uk/mgoc26...ead.php?t=1496 no.#15 there are pics of a valve taken apart.
If you need more info let me know as I kept the faulty one.

Ive seen that thanks.
I actually need a valve and actuator assembly in order to make a prototype that I can test on my car.

bit pricey for me to buy as a dummy to black olive the valve,but does anyone know what the metal pipe bit is for ??

,but does anyone know what the metal pipe bit is for ??

The metal pipe is the connection from the valve to the bulkhead, as the rubber pipes do not go through the bulkhead but use this connection that seals with an opposite block in the engine bay plenum area. There are 2 of these, one for the coolant pipes and one for the air con pipes.
